👋 Hey, thanks for the suggestion👍. It would depend on the amount of usage the trimmer delivers and for how long. This would determine when the blade should be replaced because '6 months' is an arbitrary number. Now, if the user trims/shaves facial hair once a week or 52x a year, why would one replace the blade🤔 every 6 months? Please explain your reasoning for 6 month replacement?
Ive had my gold fx trimmers for 3 years and havent changed blade yet. Im booked solid 5 days a week so theyve seen a ton of volume they still crunch like 1st day i got em and i know exactly how they feel when i use them i wont change blades untill they start snagging. You change blades when you feel they need it
Each one teach one👍. RUclips is a wealth of knowledge and has got me out of predicaments time after time💪 Thanks. Which Babyliss trimmer did that video help you to fix??
Thank u so much for this video!!!!! Iv been at it since like 12pm trying to put mine back together! I feel like I was being trolled while watching other ppls videos on how to fix them!!!!
Great content you got my like! I like your idea of loctite and using a magnifying glass. Something so simple yet so helpful and practical. I’m heading to harbor freight ASAP today! Lol. Thanks again.
Hi, I’ve been having extreme trouble with getting this blade to screw In because of the reaction of the spring, I’m unable to get the screw to screw into the still blade. Please help if possible.
Im not lyin when i say, when i hooked the gold part up to the front of the lil springs, it took me over 3 hrs to screw it in bro🤦🏾♂️damn neck was killin me cause i was lookin down for that long man
🤔hmm, I've never had to search for the Fx Trimmer zero gap tool before, so, I can't even tell you. But there's good news 😁 and that is if you can get yourself a 1.5mm or maybe a 2mm Allen key you can zero gap using that alone.👍👍 Let me know if you can get your hands onto those 2 Allen keys, ok?! Good Luck bro 💪 🙏 👍
Try adjusting it to the point a little before it zero gaps it bites the skin when the bottom blade is sticking farther then the upper blade and try not adding too much oil this may be the reason its moving up and biting the skin maybe?
The Allen screw on the right side of mine seems like it’s stripped or something. I can’t seem to get it loose using the provided Allen key sent from babyliss 😫
Mine was stripped to so i put a drop of super glue in the screw and put the lil screw driver that comes wit it in the screw wit the super glue still wet . I held the screw driver for a lil let it dry a bit then once fully dry i was able to turn the screw it worked good
Yeah, but the only major problem is, its not that easy. When you got to tight the screws, the moving blade never stays where you put it. It ALWAYS moves when you tighten it down. Im a barber or 36 years. Ive never been able to set liners in one go. It takes days of trial an error with clients and my own skin. Either one side is to sharp or not. The best way is to have the moving blade slightly above the comb blade and youll have to use your trimmers as a bald out blade for abfrw weeks untli the hair sands down the moving blade over a period of time they'll be perfect. Always have extra trimmers for the time being but this has always been the best way for me. Thats with any and every trimmer. Hair does sand down blades. Trust me.
I need some advice. I dropped my baby bliss and it’s making a loud noise & cuts on one side only. How do it deal with that? Should I buy a new blade or adjust the one of I have cause I don’t see any cracks in the blade
You probably have to tighten the screws. it sucks you dropped them but I went through the same thing lol. I took mine apart & seen no problem but noticed the screw was slightly loosened so I took time to tighten every screw near the blade. If that doesn’t work then idk what’s wrong lol good luck!
Hola bro ! Cómo solucionaste el problema de que la cuchilla se mueva ? No sé qué es el pegamento que le pone en el vídeo ni sé si funciona ! Por favor me podrás pasar el dato ?
Hey so I just got my trimmer and the black blade or still blade idk how else to call it, it shifts like it doesn’t stay in the middle (well aligned) I believe that’s what you were trying to fix too right? Any ideas why or how to fix? Any help anybody will be appreciated. TIA!
If u look in side the gapping tool it has a piece of plastic that holds the tool in place. It is one one side only so the side without the piece gets pushed out more .
@@islord999 the zero gap tool has an area for the Allen screw driver to pop into. In mine, I had to pull it out of the zero gap tool when I got it out of the box. Can be helpful for keeping stuff together and not getting lost in the drawer.
I bought mine off Amazon and it didn't come with the yellow screwdriver but it's perfectly Zero gapped. Idk if that's an Amazon thing or they just figured everyone was ganna do it anyway.
Just the video I needed, i got the silver fx and they started making loud noises like rattling. I took apart the blade and was having trouble with the spring part when putting back together. Going to try this again!
Thank you so much. Wondeful video. Unfortunately, I dropped my machine a few months back. I can't seem to figure out why it's not cutting any longer. I can't seem to get it to cut. There is practically no signs that it was dropped or of any damage. It's expensive and I don't know if I should replace the blade if I just don't know if this is actually where the issue lies. Thank you in advance for an excellent video and for any additional help!
Try looking at the zero gap tool. It’s the handle. I just ordered some babyliss trimmers and was looking for the screw driver. On mines the screw driver is black and not yellow.
With all 3 parts in place, try inserting the long screws thru the blade and into the spring retainer first. This will stop the assembly from sliding out of place. You'll only have to focus on the the screw. Good luck!
Ok I think there are some lo pros out there with the cam backwards. Took one apart from stock. Fliped the cam over and boom that mid dot on it facing bottom works way better.
Hmm, your trimmers were running mint. You happened to dropped them. Since then you have changed the blade and now the new blades are pulling hair. 🤔 How many hours are on the new blades?
@@DelaceLeCoiffeur zero , its more so catching the skin they are aligner and not crooked but for some reason they catch skin its ok when i try it on arm hair its a chameleon fx trimmer but with the gold blade since Babyliss doesn’t support anything in Bulgaria you cant buy the chameleon blade
Hi and thanks for a great video 👍🏻 Just a quick question is this trimmer worth the price or would you recommend something else? Just need it to cut my always short hair real short and trim edges of me beard..
It's fire bro, I use it to line up my beard and it looks like I got it done professionally. Definitely worth it over going to the barber every couple weeks.
I had to put the long screws in first to line up then I had to hold it down tightly to to keep the spring from popping up, very frustrating, but it helped to put it together easier.
I think it's becuz of the gap tool. I jus brought a pair and noticed that the tool itself is uneven. It has a plastic piece on 1 side and not the other
Your supposed to change your balde every 6 months

Thank you.
Great video Delace. Thank you!
Hi, I’ve been having extreme trouble with getting this blade to screw In because of the reaction of the spring, I’m unable to get the screw to screw into the still blade. Please help if possible.
try using a pair of pliers to gently press the two together in your left hand while screwing the screw with your right hand?

I took it apart to clean it fuck I was getting mad haha tryna put it back together

Me salvaste la Trimmer, saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪
The spring keeps popping out on mines after I turn on the trimmer after the adjustment
What a legend i ain’t know that red tool that holds the lil screwdriver is used for a zero gap tool
It's hard to tell what the item is used for, but we know now 🙏
Excellent video brother 👌
Thanks, I really truly appreciate the love 🙏
what size island key / zero gap tool can I purchase if I lose my zerogap tool that comes with the babyliss trimner?
🤔hmm, I've never had to search for the Fx Trimmer zero gap tool before, so, I can't even tell you. But there's good news 😁 and that is if you can get yourself a 1.5mm or maybe a 2mm Allen key you can zero gap using that alone.👍👍

Hello my babyliss detailers out the box , after been turned on the blade slants? It goes completely uneven , what can I do to fix it
Easiest option: return it!
AWESOME VIDEO….. VERY HELPFUL! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING!
Glad it was helpful! 😃🤙
Great tutorial
Yo the Philip screw (the hard one😂) does the small metal screw go in aswell?
The spring keeps popping out on mines
Excelente tutial me sirvió mucho👍🏿👍🏿🔥
I have this trimmer , straight out of the box it pulls hair and also bites the skin . I have tried everything to fix it and it is still doing it .
Try adjusting it to the point a little before it zero gaps it bites the skin when the bottom blade is sticking farther then the upper blade and try not adding too much oil this may be the reason its moving up and biting the skin maybe?
Great video. Do your blade get hot when using?
sometimes yeah! do yours?
Easy to fix it or So? I recently have bought it.
Sehr gut danke
Hi guys, I have a problem with my machine, the spring broke and I couldn't find a replacement, could you help me?
Thank you for this👍🏽👍🏽
What happens if the screws are worn down and can’t take the screw off?
I hope that this would never happen, but it should be an easy fix. It would also depend on which screws were worn down. 🤔
were can i get metal plate?
Thank you man! I needed this vid to reassemble after cleaning the blades.
Thanks, No problem bruh!
Thank you great help

Drop some clipper oil around the screw, had the same issue yesterday and that resolved it 😁

Hey Elvin, that sounds like a dull cutting blade. I suggest sending it out for sharpening. Good luck bro!👍
Did you oil them with clipper oil?
Mines fell but not hard n now makes a noise. What do I fix it
Sorry to hear you dropped your trimmer. Open the trimmer up n take a look inside the body.
Cool bro
Where did you get the zero gap tool?
It came with the trimmer and was part of the included accessories! Why yours didn't come with the ZG tool? 🤔

These gold babyliss trimmers give me skin burn when i use them why is that??
Skin burn? You must be using them wrong. What kind of aftershave products do you use?
What does zero gapping do?
Zero gapping the blade set helps create straighter-sharper lines, which, cuts down on the amount of work you need to do when finishing with a razor.
Nice...
Thank you! Cheers!👍
Broke my clippers thank you
💀
😂😂😂
no fr
😂😂😂😂

Thanks for going pretty in depth with it. helped me fix the blade not cutting right. I have them hitting right again.
Glad it helped bro.
dude u saved me from a nervous breakdown thanks for your tutorials. liked and subscribed.
Thanks yungen!
@@DelaceLeCoiffeur yes sir
Lost my hex key no other hex key works so I had to use mini vice grips to loosen. Bad design choice for the screws.
